Here's my navy ROC on a black AP rubber strap. This strap system works on all 39mm and 41mm Royal Oaks and Royal Oak Chrono models.

Your conversion looks brilliant! the change is perfect for the summer. I looked into it a while back and price has definitely gone higher for OEM. I posted a thread similar about rubber b making a strap for Audemars. Do you feel that you have a different watch with the conversion?

You're right, the black rubber does make the navy look even darker.

This morning I ordered a navy rubber strap from the local APSC for my ROC. It's the same blue strap that comes standard on the Pride of Italy.

I think it will look even better on the navy rubber.

That should look great with the dial, and definitely better than the black.

Yeah me too!

I have a navy rubber strap for the 42mm ROO (26470) at home and matched it up to the ROC's dial. They complement each other nicely.

Will post pics here as soon as I receive the strap from APSC.
